WHAT SANK THE MARY ROSE?Curriculum Focus: History and Science (Physics)

Price: £8.00 per student - All-Inclusive Experience Day

Investigate a genuine mystery in this two-part cross-curricular investigation: why did the Mary Rose sink? Was it sunk by French gunfire? Was it a sailing accident? Were the crew to blame? Was the ship unstable or overloaded?

Students weigh the conflicting historical evidence scrutinising the provenance of key sources. In our lab, they gather their own scientific evidence to support or refute the various theories. Working with model ships, students test the stability and load-bearing capacity of the ship and use their scientific knowledge to assess the design of the Mary Rose. Each student comes to their own conclusion as to why the ship sank.

SCIENCE AT WORK STEM DAYCurriculum Focus: Biology, Chemistry and Physics Price: £8.00 per student - All-Inclusive Experience Day

Pupils spend a day uncovering the science behind the scenes at the Mary Rose Museum and find out how we used cutting edge science to become a world leader in conservation and archaeology. In a two part investigation, students discover how the three sciences come together in our big conservation challenge.
